Dating from 1954, yet based on the distinctive Art Deco period stylings of the 1920’s, this substantial cocktail cabinet by ‘Beautility’ has been treated to the most unique of refinishes. Its tola and walnut construction has been revived and redesigned in a manner that not only highlights its stunning design features - with its raised, undulating panels and elegant curves - but also fully embraces its Deco origins. A multicoloured, geometric ‘sunburst’ design, influenced by stained glass ‘picture windows’ of the ‘20s-‘30s and the popular ‘Streamline Moderne’ architectural and industrial design movement of the Deco period, it is now a lavish tribute to this unparalleled period of style, whilst remaining an enviable addition to any design-conscious contemporary home.
- completely stripped of its original finish and carefully sanded to remove decades of unsightly marks, its carcass (with its otherworldly woodgrain) has been refinished with a hardwearing wax-oil and now shimmers again
- the central drop-down section, with sliding door and drawers, has been completely redesigned using a selection of tinted wax oils, stains and handpainted gold pinstripes. The design ‘wraps’ around the raised wood sections creating an almost 3-D effect, whilst the sun’s rays to the sliding door rise and fall with operation of the drop-down door. The original metal handles, with their ornate, floral appliqué design and decorative baseplate, have been cleaned and re-gilded with gold gilding wax and sealed. So too, all hinges and mechanisms have been re-gilded, whilst new brass magnetic catches have been fitted to all doors
- internally, the glamorous drink-serving section has a new mirror fitted to the base which bounces light around from the newly added, streamlined, rechargeable LED strip-light which is discreetly affixed to the underside of the sliding door. The light is easily accessible and removable via a magnetic strip, and has several functions, including ‘on’, ‘off’, ‘motion sensing’, stepless dimming, and can be adjusted to ‘warm light’, ‘natural light’ or a mixture of the two. The underside of the sliding door has been painted gold which is pleasingly reflected in the new mirror, as has the recessed section of the drop-down door. The original mirror, with only some slight, discrete ghosting in accordance with its age, is retained at the back of the cabinet
- the two side cabinets have been thoroughly painted in a custom mix of gold mineral paint, whilst newly-cut mirrors are inserted into the bases adding as sense of luxury to the storage of your treasured wines and spirits
- both drawers have been thoroughly cleaned and oiled, with a soft ‘wine red’ leatherette fitted to the top drawer enabling protected horizontal storage for up to 6 standard wine bottles
- the legs, feet, and elongated curved stretcher have been completely refinished with a mixture of wax oil and gold paint, elevating the entire piece. Indeed, the reverse of the stretcher is also painted gold - in the unlikely event you ever catch a glimpse of it!
Condition report:
All of our furniture is vintage or antique and has enjoyed a lengthy previous life. Whilst professionally refinished/restored, some minor or discreet signs of wear may remain, or other age-related indicators such as pitting to metalwork, or ghosting to mirrored sections may be present. Such minor imperfections only serve to add to the provenance and history of the pieces but should you have any concerns about any aspect of condition, feel free to contact us here and I’ll be only to happy help.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
